When Goodbye Changes Everything

When goodbye comes without warning, everything changes.

There are losses that don’t just break your heart—they reset your entire world. In When Goodbye Changes Everything, author Jeffrey Simmons offers a raw, compassionate companion for anyone learning how to breathe again after the death of someone they loved deeply.

This special two-in-one edition brings together I Didn’t Get to Say Goodbye and Love After the Final Goodbye, plus a new final chapter—a single, steady path from shock and grief to healing, hope, and the possibility of love after loss.

This audiobook is for you if you’re:

• grieving the loss of a spouse, partner, fiancé, or loved one
• carrying regret, unanswered questions, or the ache of “no last goodbye”
• trying to function while your world feels unfamiliar
• wondering how to move forward without “moving on”
• curious (or terrified) about connection, dating, or love again—someday

Inside, you’ll discover:

• ways to survive the first waves of grief—minute by minute, day by day
• how to handle triggers, anniversaries, and the moments that hit out of nowhere
• practical steps for rebuilding routines when life feels shattered• how to honor their memory while still choosing to live
• compassionate guidance for opening your heart again when the time is right

You don’t have to “be strong.” You don’t have to have the right words. And you don’t have to do grief perfectly. You just have to take the next breath—and the next step.

If you’ve been searching for a real, honest, and hopeful grief recovery audiobook—this is the one that meets you where you are.
